History

The sable is a lively animal with particularly beautiful fur, native to coniferous forests from the northern Urals to the Pacific. The Russians have been hunting this valuable animal for a long time. The image of the sable is found on the coats of arms of the ancient Russian cities – Irkutsk, Yakutsk, Verkhoturye.
